What a great monologue! It is the silent scream we are all shouting. The quiet voice that every once in awhile pops up its head and says, "Unplug! You're missing your life!" This is a fun, visceral reminder that, yes, we do have the power to interrupt the grind.

With shades of Beckett, Stoppard, and a soupcon of Ubi Roi for flavor, this play is a theatre lover's dream. So smart, so witty, and full of such painful truth about theatre. Standing ovation! Of you're looking for an alternative to Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead or Waiting for Godot, this is your play.

Screamingly, HOWLINGLY funny!! It's a razer-sharp, biting satire that keeps you laughing the whole time. The biggest crime of our era is that this play is not being produced everywhere. If you have a classical theatre, program this show immediately! If you've ever heard the phrase "Women aren't funny," program this show immediately! If you have hilarious actresses in your life who are losing hope, program this show immediately. Brilliant!

A haunting script filled with atmospheric tension and mystery. Aleks paints this world so vividly, you can almost hear the sea and taste the fog. It's a love story and a ghost story and an apocalyptic tale from a century ago. Perfect fall fare!

An absolute scream! (While also tackling some big topics.) If you have a classical theatre, add this to your season. It's Chekhov with guest appearances by some of Shakespeare's clowns! This play is filled with so many delightful references. It absolutely tickled me, and I think it would bring both guffaws of laughter and thoughtful appreciation from classical theatre fans.

Oh man... for a one-minute short, this sure hits the struggles we face as playwrights hard. (And HILARIOUSLY.) I know prompts and themes from soliciting theatres are supposed to be fun and align us with their mission, but sometimes it really feels like this play. Well done! And I hope that this makes it into a ton of one-minute play festivals.

A hilarious spoof of a kids' TV show! It gives a gentle ribbing to all the "educational" content in kids' cartoons. Your audience will be chomping at the bit to see this one. A total crowd pleaser!

When the movie Benjamin Button came out, no one really thought to ask what it was like in the delivery room for the mom to give birth to a fully grown old man... until now. You'll never look at that story the same. In the spirit of Durang, this is a wickedly funny comedy!

An absolutely HILARIOUS short about Hanukkah! Great characters! Great jokes! And most of all, huge heart. Pick this one up for your theatre's holiday show!

This anti-fairy tale is rich with the dark spirit of Grimm's Fairy Tales. It isn't a happily ever after. In fact, like the Grimms, it is a story about what terrible things can happen when you go out into the woods. Or, in this case, blackberry picking.
